SALT LAKE CITY— Head coach Kyle Whittingham received 20 signed National Letters of Intent today, which combined with fi ve mid-year junior college signees, brings Utah’s 2007 football class to 25. The recruits include 18 high school and seven junior college players. With just four defensive starters returning from last season’s Armed Forces Bowl champion team, the majority of the scholarships tendered were for defensive players. The Utah coaches addressed their biggest need by signing eight defensive backs – the most of any position. They’re bringing in four defensive linemen and four linebackers, as well. The offensive position that picked up the most new players was quarterback, where junior Brian Johnson and senior Tommy Grady are the only scholarship returners. Of the three incoming quarterbacks, Griff Robles plans to serve an LDS church mission before enrolling in school. Outside of quarterback, virtually all of Utah’s offensive skill players return from 2006, leaving one scholarship for a wide receiver, two for running backs (freshman Eddie Wide is listed as a combination running back/defensive back) and two for tight ends. Said Whittingham, “We’re excited about our recruiting efforts this year and feel we’ve put together another solid class. Our basic philosophy of recruiting the most talented players, regardless of position, and being willing to move guys around has not changed. This year’s recruiting emphasis was on the defensive side of the ball. We lost several starters from last year’s team but feel we were able to offset those losses with our defensive signees. “We were also very pleased with the success rate we had as far as getting players committed in relation to the number of offi cial visits that were made to our campus. This success was due not only to the hard work of our assistant coaches, but also the great job our players already in the program did in hosting the visiting athletes. “We made a concerted effort to recruit Texas and we feel we accomplished this objective with the fi ve players we were able to sign. Of course, we always look fi rst at the best talent in the state of Utah, and California and Hawaii are longtime recruiting hotbeds for us.” California recruits led the way with 11 signing on with the Utes, followed by Texas (fi ve) and Utah (four). Other states represented are Hawaii and Nevada, with two each, and Virginia, with one. Of the fi ve junior college players to sign during the mid-year period, three are enrolled at Utah for spring semester: defensive lineman Koa Misi, defensive back Deshawn Richard and quarterback Chad Manis. Two others – defensive backs Robert Johnson and Josh Broughton – are expected to join the team later. Freshmen planning to serve LDS church missions prior to enrolling in school include Robles, defensive back Mike Honeycutt and tight end Westlee Tonga. -roster and bios follow- www.UtahUtes.com 2007 UTAH FOOTBALL RECRUIT BIOS 2007 UTAH FOOTBALL RECRUITING CLASS Name Pos.

  • MINNESOTA VIKINGS EDITION Minnesota Vikings Team History
    TEACHER ACTIVITY GUIDE MINNESOTA VIKINGS EDITION Minnesota Vikings Team History Over the past quarter-century, the Minnesota Vikings have consistently been at the top of their division. During that same period, only Dallas has made more playoff appearances. In addition, only four teams have played in more Super Bowls than Minnesota, which participated in Super Bowls IV, VIII, IX and XI. The pro football saga in the Twin Cities began in August 1959, when fi ve Minnesota businessmen were awarded a franchise in the new American Football League. Five months later in January 1960, the same ownership group made up of Bill Boyer, Ole Haugsrud, Bernie Ridder, H. P. Skoglund and Max Winter fi rst forfeited its AFL membership and then was awarded the National Football League’s 14th franchise that was to begin play in 1961. Perhaps no team in history ever had a more spectacular debut than did the Minnesota Vikings in their fi rst game ever on September 17, 1961. Rookie Fran Tarkenton made a once-in-a-generation debut when he came off the bench to throw four touchdown passes and run for a fi fth score to lead his Vikings to a 37-13 thrashing of the fabled Chicago Bears. Two-and-a-half decades later in 1986, Tarkenton became the fi rst Vikings player to be elected to the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Minnesota’s fi rst management team was led by general manager Bert Rose and head coach Norm Van Brocklin. From the start, the Vikings embraced an energetic marketing program that produced a fi rst- year season ticket sale of nearly 26,000 and an average home attendance of 34,586, about 85 percent of the capacity of 40,800 Metropolitan Stadium.
